That's a stunning statement Army_Strong. I thought the democracy was all about truth and openness, or at least it should be. Your statement is what you would expect from a totalitarian regime.

If your statement is true then I don't hold out much hope for the continuation of our democratic process. The simple fact is we
need to have some idea as to what is being done in our name otherwise we'll never be able to change things. We don't want our leaders to govern on "the mushroom principle" - keep them in the dark and shovel s**t on them every so often!
